Info
MagicSpells is a Minecraft Bukkit plugin that creates magic spells your players can use. Its main purpose is to give your players access to certain abilities that you might not want to give them unlimited access to. However, instead of just giving them access to boring commands, they instead get more interesting spells. Each spell can be configured in many ways:
- Reagent costs (the cost of using the spell, including items, mana, health, hunger, experience, and item durability)
- Cooldowns (the amount of time a player must wait between uses)
- Durations (how long certain effects last)
- Ranges (how far away spells can be used from their target)
- Many more options, depending on the spell
Spells can be cast by using the /cast command, swinging a configurable wand item, or both. It's also possible to have them triggered from other actions the player may take. It's all customizable.
Usage
Before a player can cast a spell, they must already know it. There are several ways a player can learn a spell:
- Taught with the teach spell
- Learned from a spellbook
- Learned from a tome
- Gained from a grant permission
- Purchased from a shop
- Being a server op (they know all spells) For example, a server op can teach Bob the blink spell by typing: ''/cast teach bob blink''.
Once a spell is learned, it can be cast either by using the ''/cast'' command or by using a wand item. Now that Bob knows the blink spell, he can either cast it by command, by typing ''/cast blink'', or he can cast it with a wand item. To select the spell, he holds the wand in his hand and right clicks. Right clicking will cycle through any spells assigned to the item he is holding. When he has the one he wants, he left clicks to cast.
If Bob does not have the required reagents for the spell, or if he has cast it recently and it is still on cooldown, he will not be able to cast the spell and will instead receive an error message.
If mana is enabled, a player can use the ''/mana'' command to see how much mana they currently have. Mana can also be configured so it is displayed on the experience bar.

Why isnt this working? I can use effect_(whatever potion effect) and it will work but it doesn't like strength :/

Posted Oct 3, 2016We had been married for a while and things were OK, I was in love with her, she was crazy about me, but later on everything changed and by complicated exterior circumstances which did not have to do with us, we decided to pause for a while, but still remain friends. But in the end, she started getting cold: she treated me as if she did not know me, she acted too immature to the point where she did not even say hi to me when we bumped into each other (we had the same circle of friends). Of course, it hurt so badly, I wanted to kill her. Then out of nowhere she disappeared. I wrote her for her birthday and she replied little. Some of my “friends” saw she had left and started going cold with me too, as if it was my fault that she had left. The few that were still my close friends and still hers, told me she had moved on, that it was best not to make contact with her. Then out of the blue some months later she reappeared, but still acting like a douche. I was suffering emotionally of course, because we had never even had a divorce, it was just supposed to be a pause, so I did not know how to react, what to feel, what to do… anyway, she kept coming over and over on the weekends, and I had to deal with my “friends” who the moment they saw her, immediately left me and went over to her. Eventually, I decided to give up trying to restore anything with her as she was showing no signs of wanting me back, and started healing. Around four months after we had ended our relationship, I find out she is with another guy! That’s when I knew I had not gotten over her, because I cried, I was mad, it was just a feeling of “oh, poor me”. I could not stand losing her to some other guy, I decided to go diabolical (i.e. via spell). I got involved with a lot of fraudulent so-called spell casters on the internet who ripped me off my money without getting a result as to what I wanted. I almost lost my sanity. Just as I almost was giving up, one faithful morning, I received a mail from one of the spell castes I had applied for spell with but never got a reply all along. He made me to understand that he could not attend to all his costumers then because it was that time of the year for his annual fellowship with his ancestors for the renewal of his spiritual and supernatural gift. I told him not to worry about the spell anymore, that I was done with all of them fake spell casters. He assured me of his 100% genuine work of this gift which he possessed. I decided to give it a try. After spending about 2500 USD (which was due to my inability to provide a whole lot of materials which he needed for the spell process), I am happy to announce to the world that I have gotten back my wife and we are expecting our first baby. All thanks to Dr. Kene Dilli. All you out there tired of all these fraudsters that call themselves spell casters (seeking to rip were they have not sown) and you require legitimate spell for whatsoever purpose, contact Dr. Kene Dilli on his email address; kenedillitemples AT yahoo DOT com.RE-WRITE THE EMAIL ADDRESS IN IT’S STANDARD FORM.

Posted Jul 14, 2016Does anyone by chance have a version of this compatible with beta 1.7? XD
I know that's unlikely but it's worth an ask. ======
EDIT: Ignore my stupidity. I forgot there were multiple version pages. >.<

Posted Jun 24, 2016Please fix the spell effects. They are glitchy, work maybe 10% of the time and the wiki doesn't really explain them. Also the modifier give damage doesn't work.

Posted Apr 23, 2016I can cycle through spells fine while aiming at the ground and at other blocks. So I am unsure why you have this issue :[
I am not using the same version as you, I am using a fork of magicspells. I made a thread about the fork on the forums, if you are interested. I would suggest making a ticket about your issue so Nisovin can look at it.

Thanks for answer me. Hmmm nop, but thanks to you I made a couple more tests, when I aim to the air, I mean with no aim to any near block the spell selection works fine, but If I aim to the ground or on a solid block the issue happens again, and with the shield equipped too as you told me. I'm glad this work with this precautions. Thanks again :3

Are you wearing a shield? If so , that may be the cause. Try taking the shield off.

Posted Apr 12, 2016Hi! First I want to thank you for the plugin, is awesome :D
Well, I have the latest version of magicspells MagicSpells-3.5-dev-1603090833.jar for my 1.9 spigot server, all fine but I have a issue, I use magic wands to cast spells but when the players switch the spells with the wands with right click, the spell leaps to the second next spell...uhmm I don't know If I can explain with my english (I am from México), let me try to explain with an example.
I have with my wand 4 magicks in the following order 1-Stonevision 2-Repair 3-Lillypad and 4- Anvil, I have the Stonevision selected, I need to do a right click to change to the next spell, I mean the Repair spell, but when I do it leaps to Lillypad. I hope you can help us. Awesome Work!

Posted Apr 4, 2016galaxy I am guessing you mean firework particles. You need to use the dev version of magicspells. Your current version is outdated.

Last version makes player's armors dissapear when spells are cast. Is anyone else having this issue? Any idea why this could be happening?
